Item 5.03.  Amendment of Articles of Incorporations or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

 

As disclosed in Item 5.07 below, at the 2017 Annual Meeting the Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Boingo Wireless, Inc. (the “Company”) held on June 8, 2017, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment (the “Certificate Amendment”) to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation in order to declassify the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) and provide that directors shall be elected for one-year terms after the expiration of their respective current terms. The Certificate Amendment was previously approved by the Board, subject to stockholder approval, and became effective upon filing with the Delaware Secretary of State on June 9, 2017. Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, the directors elected at or prior to the Annual Meeting will continue to serve out their three-year terms, but directors elected after the Annual Meeting will be elected to one-year terms. Therefore, beginning with the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, the entire Board will be elected on an annual basis.

 

Additionally, the Board previously approved an amendment and restatement of the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (as amended and restated, the “Bylaws”), effective upon the filing of the Certificate Amendment with the Delaware Secretary of State. The amendments consist of conforming changes to reflect the declassification of the Board.

 

Copies of the Certificate Amendment and the Bylaws are filed as Exhibit 3.1 and Exhibit 3.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing descriptions of the Certificate Amendment and the Bylaws do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate Amendment and the Bylaws.

The Company held the Annual Meeting on June 8, 2017 and the Company filed its definitive proxy statement for the proposals voted upon at the Annual Meeting with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 28, 2017 (the “Proxy Statement”).

 

At the close of business on April 13, 2017, the record date of the Annual Meeting, the Company had 38,968,925 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The holders of a total of 35,868,663 shares of common stock were present at the Annual Meeting, either in person or by proxy, which total constituted a quorum of the issued and outstanding shares on the record date of the Annual Meeting.

1.                     The election of three Class III directors to serve until the Company’s 2020 annual meeting of stockholders.
